The APC accused the PDP of perfecting plans to rig the election
and the ruling Peoples Democratic Party in Taraba State have traded words over an alleged plan by the PDP to manipulate the forthcoming local government election in the state.
In a statement on Tuesday, the state’s chairman of the APC Ibrahim El-sudi urged the governor to allow the will of the people to prevail. “The outcome of the meeting was the decision to constitute a powerful ‘project’ Committee made up of a single eminent stakeholder from each of the sixteen Local Government councils to produce consensus candidates for each Local Government council.
“Denying the people to freely install their leaders will rather compound the issue and worsen the bad security situations in the state. The Governor should ignore such unwholesome advice and allow free and fair elections,” Mr El-sudi said. “Conversely, we are quick to add that Governor Kefas is a Democrat who believes in due process. He’s an expert at orderliness- a trait drilled into him by his soldierly background.
